You want to...
👉 use GenAI to revolutionize workflows?
👉 build products customers love?
👉 work in a Y-Combinator Start-Up?
👉 be part of our unicorn success story?
Then join us. We're not a normal company.
We build virtual humans with GenAI. We redesign procurement in enterprises by imitating the work of employed buyers. Backed by Y-Combinator, Silicon Valley investors and awarded by the German Government as most innovative startup.
We are growing rapidly. The following are only some milestones we reached within half a year:
We were accepted into the YC batch in San Francisco and have since maintained direct contact with OpenAI and Microsoft
We serve enterprises throughout the entire DACH region, including MDAX companies and DAX companies. We will be live worldwide soon.
We have been recognized as one of Germany's most innovative startups by the federal government and personally by Dr. Robert Habeck.
We have significant recurring revenue, which increases every month. Even at Y Combinator, we were among the top 10% of the highest-revenue startups in the batch.
Our principles:
We are here to change the world, and we know that to achieve this, we need to work smarter and harder than everyone else. We aim to surround ourselves with world-class individuals and owe it to our teammates to perform at our best. We care about our physical and mental health and encourage our team members to do the same.
Silicon Valley is deeply embedded in our DNA, and we live the "Get-Shit-Done" attitude every day. We have an extreme bias for action because action produces information. We set ambitious goals and are driven to achieve them.
We look forward to tackling difficult, unfamiliar problems because that is how we learn best and develop innovative solutions. We aim to learn new things together with our colleagues, fostering a culture of continuous improvement. We are open and welcome uncomfortable conversations that challenge us and help us grow.
We empathize deeply with our customers' pain and are obsessed with making their lives better. We communicate our thoughts, feelings, and ambitions with each other. We aim to build lifelong relationships with our teammates.
About the role:
As a Business Development Manager, you will play a pivotal role in our journey from pre-Series A to becoming a unicorn. You will own and drive all aspects of business development, shaping the future growth and success of askLio.
You will be responsible for identifying and pursuing new business opportunities, generating leads, and establishing strategic partnerships. Your efforts will directly contribute to our market expansion and revenue growth. By collaborating with the CEO and other key stakeholders, you will develop and execute strategies that position askLio as a leader in the procurement market.
This role requires a proactive and strategic thinker with excellent communication and negotiation skills. You will engage with high-level decision-makers and ensure our business development efforts align with our long-term goals. Your ability to build and maintain strong relationships with customers and partners will be crucial to our success.
We expect you to be convinced that we are currently experiencing a historic moment with Generative AI: comparable to the Industrial Revolution or the rise of the Internet – and you are here not just to be a part of it, but to actively shape it.
We are seeking curious and low-ego individuals with a strong product sense and customer-centric mindset, eager to tackle unprecedented challenges and excited by our mission in AI. The ideal candidate is a pragmatic generalist focused on shipping features quickly and obsessed with understanding and meeting customer needs.
